Whoever thought this one up [1], thank you for making me almost choke on my meal due to laughing fits. :-) [1] http://pycon.blogspot.com/2009/02/randall-munroe.html Primary credit for the writing goes to Catherine Devlin, who runs publicity for PyCon, but it was to some extent a group effort on the pycon-organizers list. PyCon is all about the volunteering! Very cool. Has anyone contacted Randall about giving a keynote at PyCon?

We're discussing it, but unless we want to conduct a public campaign to push him to come, let's keep it low-key for now.
